Depot Day 2026...while we had to adapt and make a few changes due to the weather, the day finished out beautifully. Thank you to everyone that came out. Thanks to the high school bands that provided music all day, Del Oro Modular Railroad, East Valley Lines N scale, the LA Breakfast Club, Friends of Griffith Park, LA Live Steamers, Henry Mack and his lego trains, the food truck vendors, LA Fire Department and Adam's Forge. A big thank you goes out to our volunteers and staff....without them we could make this happen.

There were some fun and creative costumes for our Costume Parade (those pictures will come Thursday)

The Squirrel Valley Railroad ran all day and had some new buildings added recently and we gave lots of tours of our Pullman Sleeping Cars and the Little Nugget Lounge Car.

Work continued on the Little Nugget Club Car this past weekend. Window work and the entrance stairs got a fresh coat of paint. The Squirrel Valley Railroad has been getting some upgrades including a custom built Howe Truss bridge that was donated to us by a family that dismantled their garden railroad. Look for more upgrades in the future.

Coming up this weekend....we have our Member's Only Play Day and tours of the Pullman Sleeping cars and the M.177 motor car. 10am - 3pm Saturday, August 8.
